Compact x-ray inspection
The Xpert C400 x-ray system for detecting metals and other foreign objects in food has been upgraded, including an x-ray source with twice the power of the original model, compact sanitary drum motors and shorter line configurations. The x-ray power boost makes the system well suited for thicker, denser product and/or higher speed production. The system targets a broad range of food applications including challenging wet, semi-frozen products, as well as metalized packaging structures that do not lend themselves to metal detection. The drum is designed to improve safety and performance, minimize maintenance requirements and simplify sanitation by enclosing all moving parts. Because the drum motor is part of the conveyor framework, the unit takes up less floor space. The system's sensitive detectors are available in multiple resolutions
